"Mrs. Tulane," Jonah gently placed Hannah Stewart on the high-back chair and bowed his head to greet the old lady.
"Mrs. Tulan," the little grasshopper pointed at the tip of the old woman's nose and screamed, "how come you are here, in this... I don't even know where this ghost place is,"
Mrs. Duran carefully shook the filter to let the last drop of black coffee fall into the coffee pot. She put down the filter and covered the pot lid, then walked over with the coffee: "Look what you said, the Black Cat Cafe could have appeared anywhere." It's a place, isn't it? We are a cafe that is open for business. Since you are the only customers today, you naturally want to try our signature black cat coffee." As she spoke, she bent down to drink the fragrant coffee. Pour it into four coffee cups. The waitress Yophani next to her adds sugar and milk for Sibi, pours an ounce of fresh milk for Jonah, and then pushes the cup to the four customers,,, said it is four, But Jekong stood in the corner without saying a word, and Hannah leaned on the back of the chair and fell asleep. Danny Stewart's death had a great impact on her spirit. Perhaps her coma was not due to pain, but just self-protection. The function is activated.
Jonah lifted up his clothes and carefully wiped away the blood on Hannah's face. Yophani stood beside her, looking at the strange scales, horns and tail on Xibi's body. She seemed to want to say something, but Mrs. Duran tugged at her. His sleeve was the first to say: "Everyone should drink coffee first. It won't taste good if it gets cold. No matter what happens, you should always enjoy delicious food in peace, right?"
"Okay, here's the weird thing..." The little grasshopper stirred the coffee with a silver spoon, picked it up and took a big sip. Suddenly he opened his eyes wide and giggled: "Oh, it tastes good. It has a bit of a sour chocolate taste, and Like a little burnt brown sugar, her body suddenly felt lighter, and her physical strength surged up." She didn't know it, but the atavistic features on her body were slowly fading away, her tail quietly retracted, and her scales faded away. , restored to smooth skin, Jonah sitting opposite looked at Mrs. Duran gratefully, picked up his coffee cup and took a sip. The unsweetened coffee was very bitter, but he could still feel the profound and elusive aroma contained in it. It is not transparent and has a long aftertaste, just like the first cup of moon grass tea I drank in Sukasa Canyon in the Western Continent.
Mrs. Duran moved a chair and sat down, looking at the guests drinking tea with a smile, "Since you two are the only ones who have called my name, then each of you can make a wish, and I will try my best to satisfy it," she patted her apron. , crossed his hands on his abdomen, waiting for the customer to make his request, "Eat a biscuit, eat a biscuit, hot biscuits are best with hot coffee, right?"
Xibi took a big bite of the biscuit, washed it down his throat with hot coffee, and said hurriedly: "I was originally going to say that I should resurrect my uncle as soon as possible, but now that idiot Danny has also fallen down, and I don't know how to make a wish. Now, can you resurrect two people together?"
The old lady shook her head: "No, this request is too much. It cannot be called a normal wish at all."
"Brother Jonah," the little grasshopper suddenly had an idea, "I will resurrect uncle, and you will resurrect Danny. Each of us can have one wish, okay?"
The astrologer said: "I can't let go of Danny, but I thought about my wish before I walked in. After all, it is a major event related to the future..."
Xibi pouted and scratched his head, "By the way, just wake up Hannah or ask that wooden stake to call out Mrs. Duran's name. I'll have two more wishes at once."
The waiter Bill said with a frown: "That's against the rules. It's valid to call Mrs. Durand's name before the food at the Black Cat Cafe is served."
The little grasshopper rubbed his temples: "Ah ah ah ah, what should I do?... Can the uncle and the idiot Danny become one person and be resurrected like a weirdo with two heads? Anyway, there are many Warcraft. They are all two-headed, so it’s probably okay to live a makeshift life like the Yizi people,”
"... It's not my job to create new humans. Besides, it's so awkward for two men to use one body. It has no sense of beauty at all," the old woman said with her head covered with black lines.
Xibi let out a long sigh, drank the coffee in one gulp, and slapped the table: "Okay, although I'm sorry to Hannah, but after all, the uncle is the most important person. Mrs. Duran, please return the uncle to me." Give it to us, this is my wish, my last time, this time and all my wishes in the future,"
The old lady turned to Jonah: "What about you? It seems like you have already thought about it."
The astrologer nodded, "Yes, Mrs. Duran. If you guessed correctly, this space is the world of the 'Promised Land', which is the aggregation of all things that may exist but do not actually exist. The Black Cat Cafe As the most magical rafting space in the entire continent, it will naturally open in this place. I think after discovering us, you will definitely open the door to us. After all, we still have one unfulfilled wish,"
The hostess of the cafe smiled bitterly: "Yes, I haven't forgotten you even a day since you left." She snapped her fingers, and heavy footsteps sounded deep in the cafe. Upon hearing this sound, Xibi He immediately stood up, and the exquisite coffee cup rolled down the table and smashed into pieces. Mrs. Duran shook her head and said: "Don't be excited, it's just a body. The one made in response to your wishes in the previous answer, before the soul is injected, is just It’s just a moving piece of meat,”
As her words faded, the half-elf in green had already passed through the cafe, and fell into the generous heart of the room leader like a bird returning to its nest. Toba's majestic body stood there, as tall as a mountain, with a body without a soul and no consciousness. He closed his arms and held the little grasshopper tenderly in his arms.
Jonah secretly wiped his eyes with the back of his hand. He faced Mrs. Duran and said loudly: "Okay, then the next step is my wish... I want to open the seventh door."
"Do you know what you are talking about?" the old lady asked calmly.
"I know," the boy replied without hesitation.
"Okay, then what I wish for you now..." Mrs. Duran was talking when suddenly a cold hiss of "choking" resounded through the cafe, and wind blew across the ground. Jonah blinked and pulled out a cloth. The long knife full of sharp serrations has been placed under the old woman's neck. "What are you doing, Jekon," the astrologer exclaimed, "put the knife down."
The southerner stared into the cafe owner's eyes with his gray eyes, and said word by word: "Give me a wish, and I will resurrect someone, Mrs. Tulan, no matter what the price, you can do it."
The old woman waved her hand to signal Jonah not to panic. She lightly touched the blade with her left hand stained with coffee powder, and the famous Buddha Tooth turned into a bunch of red roses covered with barbs. Jekong was stunned for a moment, and waved to summon Jiu Guang. The secret golden-red Buddha light, "Boom," Ming Wang's gun shot out, grazing Mrs. Duran's head, and blasting the male waiter behind her to pieces, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, I'm so annoying," at the bar In the ruins, the shattered Bill slowly got up and put his head on his torso, "Isn't this the third time I've come here? Why can't I remember the rules of the Black Cat Cafe?"
Yona rushed over and hugged Jekong's waist, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, he's just a little excited. His brain doesn't work well. He was a little impulsive when he heard the news about the resurrection." He pulled the red-haired man back a few steps with force. The young man whispered in his ear: "Don't worry, my wish is related to resurrection. You will be able to see your lover soon, believe me,"
Jekong's body stiffened for a moment, then gradually softened. He suddenly bowed vigorously to Mrs. Dulan, put the bunch of red roses in the scabbard, turned around and walked to the corner without saying a word.
The old lady sighed: "What a reckless child. Let's go on. First of all, it's the little grasshopper's wish. I can't create Toba's soul out of thin air, but I can teach you how to find the soul. You have all the conditions. Yes, and Jonah's wish is integrated with this path. What you are about to uncover is the most original secret of this world, and unexpected things will happen in the future."
"I'm ready," Jonah said.
Mrs. Duran stood up and wiped her hand. The round table became clean and empty. With a flick of her fingers, a few drops of coffee fell on the ivory white table. The middle drop slowly bloomed into the shape of a four-petal flower. "This is the continent we live on, the entire world that actually exists, and countless parallel time and spaces, including these six very strange remote worlds, are all small water droplets floating on the periphery of the continent,"
Jonah nodded, this statement was basically consistent with what the first generation mentor said.
The old lady pointed to the top of her head, and a drop of coffee spun in the air. "The continent and all other time and space are on the table, and above the plane, there is a higher world."
Jonah understood that this was what the first generation of teachers called the "first world."
The old lady took out a sugar bowl and threw six sugar cubes on the table. Each sugar cube was covered with an independent coffee drop. "There are six keys in six different time and space. When the key is turned, these six time and space It is no longer flat, but has a new dimension of 'upward'. When the six keys are rotated at the same time, the seventh door you mentioned will appear." She suddenly poured down the entire jar of sugar cubes. The sugar cubes automatically arranged themselves on the table to form a spiral tower that kept rising, touching the droplets suspended in the air within a few seconds.
"Opening the seventh door will lead to the world above," Mrs. Duran said. "You should already know a lot of things, even the truth about these keys,"
Jonah's chest heaved, "Yes, I understand. The seven engravings of the gods are the keys to the seven doors. The hidden seventh artifact 'Umang Black Mang' can open the legendary seventh door. The prophecy of the nameless book and the legacy left to the elemental elves by Segres actually point to the same purpose, the ultimate fact of penetrating the passage between the two worlds." He turned to the direction of the little grasshopper and Ye Kong: "And when the seventh fan When the door opens, the rules of our world will be rewritten, and in that instant, our loved ones will be able to find a way to return to this world,"
